We lose at Arsenal, West Brom then go and win, we lose to Liverpool, then they lose to Stoke, we lose to Sunderland, then Blackpool beat them 2-0, we lose to Man City, they then lose 2-1 to Everton, Wolves beat Liverpool and we go and lose. Chelsea lose and then they and go beat us.

 

We are playing these teams at the wrong time

 

An injury time loss, what a bad way to start the new year.

Not good at the moment, but we were never going to be able to keep up the great form all season. I'm sure it will return when the injury list is smaller.

 

Would have put Blake on to run down the game, Petrov just gives possession away.

 

Every other team would have used the 3rd sub in the 89th minute.

I am sure people think we should be going there and battering them just because Wolves beat them. Yes we were pretty poor, but the quick turnaround on games is taking it's toll. Little blips in form happen to every team, we just have to make sure it doesn't turn into a massive blip

You had a thread about winning the league a couple of weeks ago !!!

You didnt get beat by Everton !

 

Read it properly. City got beat by Everton.

Petrov did give possession away with a very poor heavy touch, but I don't think Taylor is good in open play at all.

 

He gets a lot of set pieces, so on average he's gonna be a threat from them, but for me when he's got the ball at feet he's poor. He can pass back fine no problem, but if he's facing the touchline or passing forward, he just clips a ball over the defender time and again to no one, it's like he doesn't even look up to pass to feet and just puts the ball into space with Elmander or Davies no chance of getting to it.

 

I'd have him over Petrov who despite getting a few goals and assists has been poor, for me I'd like to see Coyle go for summat new in that area, but it won't happen.

 

At least Taylor gives our left back support and does get involved, just not with any quality for me in open play, great set piece for Davies.

We've fallen down to 7th after losing by the odd goal away at Chelsea and Liverpool and people are moaning, we are as bad as any set of fans in the land.

 

Or maybe it's just Ww posters, in which case it's time to call last orders on the site. I certainly don't wish to be associated with it.

I know we didn't, has someone said we did?

Sorry Carlos, you've lost me there. Are you saying you've just realised that WW is populated by fans who like a good moan? And that if that's the case you're off? It's taken you how long to realise this?

Why oh why is it always Bolton Wanderers that kick start every bloody teams season. Twice this term weve given Liverpool life lines, then Chelsea during the week.

I've just realised we are as bad as Citeh fans moaning because they are only 2nd even though they were playing Macclesfield not too long ago, ergo what's the point?

Exactly. If we'd hung on for a point we'd be sixth at the turn of the year with pretty much the same players who flirted with relegation for the last two seasons. We had FOUR players on the bench today, that's how thin our squad is, and yet we're still managing to compete at the top end of the table.

When are narrow defeats with a depleted squad at Stanford Bridge and Anfield bad results? We put up a decent show at both games and didn't get battered. We look like we are going to avoid relegation this season which is a brilliant achievement once again. Maybe Coyle was making the same statement as Megson's today with not taking all his subs, he is putting pressure on for January recruits.

We are the Oxfam of the Premierleague, how many times do we have to be the charity boys. I'm happy with 7th and there's no shame in losing to Liverpool and Chelsea, but it does always seem to be us who end opponents bad form.

 

I knew when Wolves beat Liverpool, we wouldn't win. At 1-0 up today and Liverpool playing crap, I thought I may have been wrong, but what an awful 2nd half and once again the ref/linesman screw us over.

I take a trip around similar sites run by other supporters of other clubs. Every one of them is devided into positive and negative posters.

 

Thing is Carlos, you have the power to moderate all of the stuff that pisses you off so it looks as though all is rosy. If you did that, however, it would sound an even bigger death knell to the site.

Did I just write devided instead of divided?

Very little gets deleted from here, I have the ability to delete stuff but the other mods can undelete it. And I'd get pulled up for deleting things just because I didn't like it so there is nothing to that.

 

I don't see the point of posting the same things, over and over again. It's like groundhog day.

 

You can look at other club's sites, none of them are 7th in the Premier League with no real money and 20,000 crowds. What more do people really want? I'm fucked if I know, I really am.

We win, then we are class.

We lose, then we are shite.

 

Those are the rules. Even if it's an offside last minute winner, at Anfield, with our best player out, a 19 year old debutant, 3 outfield subs, 3 days since playing Chelsea away and still being 7th in the league.

 

I'm as pissed off as anyone and genuinely thought we would go on to win at half time, but we didn't and a win against Wigan on wednesday will put us back on track.

 

I hate football sometimes!

I think it's bit like when was doing so well under Sam and it suddenly went down hill for like 3 seasons, it's hard to take when you get used to winning and finishing in the top 8.

 

We have had such a good season so far, it's just recently we haven't been playing well and luck seems to be out. How many times are refs/linesman gonna screw us again this season?!?!

All fans are the same, never happy.

 

But, Bolton fans are not used to having a decent team, so dont really know how to be acting...!

New defence needed, 2 clean sheets all season is shite. Cahill isn't as good as everyone thinks, Robinson needs drop down a division to find his level.

, Alonso for me showed how well Robinson has been playing this season. The amount of attacks that went down their right and the amount of defensive work Taylor had to do was frightening.

 

I agree with the Cahill bit though, ?17.5m YES PLEASE. Get a new centre back (Curtis Davies), Knight plays better without Cahill as well, and use some of the rest of the money for a new right back and a striker.

Liverpool definately sought to show up any defensive frailties in alonso.
